Another method for those with command line access is to use
clone_member.  I had to do this recently and it went like this:

    clone_member -r -l listname oldaddress newaddress

The -r option removes the old address after it's been cloned.  Very
handy and quite possibly easier than writing a withlist script, though
not worth as many sysadmin hipness points. :)
